cheval mirror notes






The cheval mirror is adjustable and many times it is not placed on a firm base/stand but placed on a bar above the base in a kind of frame and thus it is adjusted within this frame. There is no rotation of the mirror but a kind of tilting. Maybe a kind of mirror that rotates based on the cheval mirror is possible. (I hope to put these notes on a blog)

I also have some simple jpegs of bases for a cheval mirror and the mirror itself. The reference to a frame above is not to a wooden frame or steel but a theoretical frame that the mirror is attached to i.e. where the hinges are. I was thinking myself of a cheval mirror standing on a base and which can be loosened in such a way from a hinge or control at the side. Thus the typical 'frame' that a cheval mirror tilts on is gone. But maybe it is still possible to keep the usual 'frame' for a cheval mirror.

jpegs to the side- these are simple images,
also some images of the base/stand to be posed in the next blog
